On Hiatus

Hello all you SQFers. This post is to let you know that I’m taking a brief hiatus from Six Questions For. . .. I sent out my first set of questions on October 27, 2009. The first post went live December 1. During that time, I’ve contacted 747 editors/publishers and posted 315 sets of responses (roughly 42% for those of you who care about such things). Whew. No wonder I need a break.

I don’t plan on it being a long respite, but posts may not resume until September--hopefully sooner. In the meantime, if you are an editor/publisher who’d like to participate, or if you know of an editor/publisher who might be interested, feel free to contact me. I’ll put you on my to-contact list for when I restart sending out questionnaires.

In the mean time, thanks to everyone who takes the time to read the posts and comment either here or on Facebook. It’s those kind thoughts that keep me going.

About This Blog

In response to a post on my personal blog, a reader suggested I publish a series of interviews in which editors "list, in excruciating details, all that each editor desires in his/her stories." Wow. What a great idea. Not only does this provide authors with specific information about what editors are looking for in the submissions they receive, it offers editors a venue for advertising their publications and getting the word out about what, in their opinion, constitutes "good writing."
If you: 1. have a question or comment, 2. would like to suggest a publication, agent, or publisher for me to contact, or 3. are an editor, publisher, or agent and would like to participate in this project, please contact me at sixquestionsfor [at] gmail[dot]com.
